Bio Medical Micro Devices (BioMEMS) research at UBC works to miniaturize systems or devices, such as implants or lab instruments. This research will greatly contribute to science and society. The research focuses on areas including Implantable Microelectrodes, Chemical Sensors and Microfludic Devices.

Implantable Microelectrodes research attempts to increase biocompatibility of implants used for extended periods of time in patients. Chemical sensor research is combining nanotechnology and microtechnology to use polymer nanofibres for more accurate testing. Lastly, researchers are testing tumor cells using Microfluidic Devices to culture cells 3-dimensionally.
